During a news report on the 9:00 news about an American football match, the signal cut to black, for fifteen seconds, to which the signal comes back, but a man wearing a Max Headroom mask appears, rocking and swaying his head while jumping up, behind a sheet of swaying corrugated metal, which was a background for the Max Headroom television series. There was no audio, only a crackling, buzzing noise. The intrusion lasted for thirty seconds before WGN-TV managed to get their signal back.

There was no audio, only a crackling, buzzing noise. The intrusion lasted for thirty seconds before WGN-TV managed to get their signal back. This left newscaster, Dan Roan shocked and bemused, saying "If you're wondering what happened there, so am I,", before unsuccessfully trying to repeat he was trying to say, before the intrusion happened.
